Performance Program
2025-2026

The Performance Program offers classes and student recitals held in Vinton Hall, located at our main Worcester campus at 10 Irving Street. Students may also take part in additional opportunities, including a biannual honors recital, faculty-led studio sessions, and community engagement events throughout the year. If you are interested in participating, please speak directly with your teacher about next steps.

We don’t send confirmation emails — rosters are updated as forms are received. To ensure the best collaborative pianist rehearsal experience, we may contact participants directly to coordinate schedules.

We successfully completed this year’s performance program with four student recitals in May.

  • Performance classes provide students with opportunities to practice performing in a supportive environment, helping them gain confidence and ease on stage. Classes typically include 6 to 10 students and run for 30–45 minutes. Students who need a collaborative pianist can schedule rehearsals before most classes. Participation is by teacher approval, and everyday casual attire is appropriate.

  • Solo practice sessions and collaborative pianist rehearsals are available for students preparing for upcoming recitals. Schedules are arranged in advance with the teacher and the school office.

  • Recitals give students the opportunity to share their music with a welcoming audience of more than 60 people. Each recital includes 12 to 16 students and lasts about one hour. Participation requires teacher approval and attendance in at least one performance class. Formal attire is expected.

  • If a student withdraws from a class for reasons other than illness with less than one week’s notice, or misses a confirmed class, a $15 withdrawal fee will be applied to their account. This fee helps the school keep classes available for all students and serves as a reminder that regular attendance is an important commitment.
